Description

Thanksgiving is a special time for loved ones, reflection and showing thanks. It's also a great time for fitness and food! No other event combines all that Thanksgiving has to offer than the good ol' Turkey Trot! While we're no stranger to virtual races - especially at Thanksgiving (our first-ever virtual race was the 2013 Turkey Trot), we have set up the 2021 Turkey Trot a little differently. 

This year is all about YOU.

This is YOUR Turkey Trot. How do you want it to look? Will you run on trails around your neighborhood? Will you run by your neighbors' houses and wave hello? Will you run to the grocery store to pick up the secret ingredient you forgot for Aunt Jill's signature pie?

All swag will be sent before Thanksgiving so that you can spend your time running, walking, hiking, biking, rowing, etc. with your loved ones and have that instant satisfaction of wearing your hard-earned bling.

We've got a few great customization options available for you too! This isn't your run-of-the-mill Turkey Trot.

Plus, we're partnering with an amazing organization called Operation Hat Trick. What began in 2008 as an organization that gave hats to service members who suffered traumatic brain injuries has grown into a massive non-profit that fills critical gaps in medical and other care needs for wounded service members and veterans. This is just a small sampling of what OHT has done over the years for our nation's wounded veterans:

  • Provided an irrigation system and golf cart for a Veterans Healing Farm that's off the grid. This organization grows food that feeds veterans in need. Veterans learn how to grow kale and lettuce, grow flowers and do beekeeping.
  • Paid for 37 veterans to attend songwriting classes where they wrote songs about their deployments and revealed details that caused their Post Traumatic Stress
  • Sponsored an entire week for up to 40 recalibrated veterans and their families at a retreat in Maine
  • Paid for ice time for 8 Warrior Hockey teams across the nation providing the "connection" necessary to deal with feelings of isolation and depression
  • Paid for 5 flights to an organization that takes traumatic brain-injured veterans to their doctor's appointments

They pride themselves on assisting vets find the care, and in some instances providing for that care completely, to work through their injuries and rebuild their lives. When you sign up for this Turkey Trot, 8% of your registration fee will go to Operation Hat Trick and to help them further their mission of helping our nation's veterans.
